Time for the last track from The Baltic Fog. I met P.W. in electronic technical highschool where we were learning what does AC/DC actually mean. Couple of my group colleagues started to use schools sound engineering room to air some music during the breaks. Thats how I found the place. We were still missing some gear though. I knew one punk-rocker from neighbouring village that had an amazing piece of equipment - dual cassette deck recorder that could record 4 independent tracks! That amazing invention was simply using whole breadth of the tape recording tracks on both stereo channels and both sides (A(L+R) + B(L+R) = 4). There was also 8-tracks console and couple of mikes around. We started to think how to arrange the rest and guys from Ahret Dev saw the potential and joined that unholy venture (Rzeczy was already screaming there and Benek was also learning at the same electronic highschool). Thanks to that we had drums and more support in setting up the recording environment. Ive recorder all the guitars on my unforgettable ZAK and 15W Laboga amp. Its onboard overdrive sounded like shit - even as for sordid Black Metal standards. Luckily Kordian (Beneks brother and future Sauron guitarist) borrowed me his Boss multi-effect (ME-6 as far as I remember) so I could record second guitar with somewhat better sound. P.W. recorded vocals using the same Russian delay. I think we used it as well as a reverb for drums track on Necromansy and The Deepest Night of Arkona - thats why it sounds like potatoes in the tin pot. I dont remember how long we were recording, but there was no time/ money pressure, so except for some minor technical problems we were rather relaxed. Last missing piece was the inlay. After begging here and there weve finally found local newspaper willing to sponsor that. Having almost no money we could afford only some cheap tapes which already had something recorded and I was copying it at home on some shitty Korean recorder so the quality was ultra-low, but I still like to listen to that demo. https://youtube/watch?v=m95ax0jNx20
